I started of my “Halloweenie” celebration by using this week’s Sketch Challenge at Skipping Stones Designs. Our sketch was drawn by the wildly talented Cristina Kowalczyk.

You don’t see a lot of Halloween projects on my blog, but this little Stampendous Cling Pumpkin Pair, got the best of me, and I had to use him multiple times. I even formualted a Copic Class with it.
This is a 3x3 stretched canvas background with patterned paper. The focal image is a stampbord like material.
I easily stamped the Pumpkin Pair with Stazon onto the Stampbord. I then started painting the image with Tim Holtz Distress Stains. I LOVE the end result!!!
I added a Maya Road zipper around the edge for interest and colored the teeth of the zipper with YR04 Copic Sketch Marker.
This card was a blast to make!!
The whole top of the card is sooo shiny!! I wish you could see it in person!!
I stamped the sentiment from Stampendous Stretchy Spooks (SSC1056) set and heat embossed with White Embossing Powder. Stampendous’ Boss Gloss has a fabulous dauber tip. I was able to apply embossing ink by simply turning the bottle upside down and rubbing it all over the paper. Once I achieved the coverage I was looking for, I sprinkled Marcasite Embossing Powder (EP214) over the entire front of the card.
I stamped my focal image on a piece of die cut paper. I “colored” in my image using a Pointalism technique. To finish off the card, around the edge of the focal image I place different sizes of Black Holograph Dot Sparklers by Stampendous.
Now hop over to Berenice Reardon's blog for some "knock your socks off " eye candy!!
